Reese Witherspoon sued by designer who claims Actresses Used Her logo

 Reese Witherspoon is being sued by a clothing designer who claims the actress copied her copyrighted logo.

Jordann Weingartner alleges that the logo for Reese’s Drape James’ clothing line – a magnolia flower on a disc, with initials in the center – is too similar to the one for her I Love Jewelry brand.

The Florida based designer is suing for a portion of Draper James’ profits, and to have Reese’s logo removed from stores, according to TMZ.

Weingartner copyrighted her ‘magnolia’ logo for a ‘distinctive six-pointed floral design’ back in 2008.

Despite the name I Love Jewelery, Weingartner’s business produces a wide variety of items, many personalised with initials.

Along with jewelry it also produces personalised clothing, which it sells from an online store.

Reese launched Draper James online in May last year and has worked hard plugging it.

Named for her grandmother and grandfather, the brand’s Southern style has proved successful, and Draper James now has a stand alone store in Nashville.
